When will my double nights post?

It depends.

From the promotion FAQ :

17. When will the bonus Tier-Qualifying Night credits appear in my account?

Bonus Tier-Qualifying Night credits will be awarded to members at the conclusion of the Promotion Period. Please allow two to three weeks after the Promotion Period ends to be posted to your World of Hyatt account.
In reality bonus Tier-Qualifying Nights have been posting earlier (and more regularly) than this. They have been posting in batches, so the nights will be credited independently from your stay credits and will show up in your account activity as "Bonus Journeys Bonus Night" once they do post.

For stays completed in 2020 and in the first days of 2021, the bonus nights posted on 1/7/21. There was another Bonus Night posting batch on 1/20/21 and 1/22/21. Some blogs reported earlier this year that posting would be done in batches every two weeks - and this (roughly) lines up with what we've seen so far.

Reported batch dates:
01/07/2021
01/20/2021
01/21/2021
02/04/2021
02/18/2021
03/04/2021
03/25/2021

If you haven't yet received your bonus nights then there's not much that Hyatt will do to "fix" this for you since the official line is that the bonuses won't post until 2-3 weeks after the promotion end date (i.e. 2/28/21).

im already at 120 nights this year so I don’t really care about the double nights promo.

I do care about the triple points, but if all the nights count towards the new promo I think I am slightly better off with 1250 bonus per night than triple points
Only 3/1 onwards will be eligible for the new promo.

I am a requalified glob with 0 spend this year (and still have 5 cat 1-4 certs to use up). That's seriously messed up.

So far it’s cost nothing (/close to nothing) for Hyatt to give you all this. It’s built up good will. It’s given you an incentive to put future stays Hyatt’s way so that you can benefit from
Globalist and use up some of the free night certs. You’ll probably end up spending a little more on those stays. Maybe you’ll have some paid nights too.

I wouldn’t call it messed up.

No, it was a quick mattress run. I got 2 nights out of it (for 4 nights) and checked out today.

Hyatt was smart. By doing this, besides Playa Del Carmen, I will focus ALL my stays on Hyatt properties besides free nights I must use at Marriott (I have 4 Marriott consumer cards) and IHG and maybe a spring break rental.

All airport hotels will be Hyatt. I always get one before a flight.
All stays for festivals will be Hyatt.
I plan on at least 2 more Hyatt all-inclusive stays for 8 nights this year and 2 next year.
All small trips will be Hyatt and I have 3 lined up.

Next year, if I go to Japan, I'm looking for Hyatts.

As a reminder, Hyatt extend the triple points for dining by several months. So even though rooms etc don't get triple points, you can still earn when dining and not staying.

I just Ate at a Hyatt and earned several thousand points

Great to know!

on a side note: how was that DRC/Petrus you ordered that gave you those several thousand points? Haha

Hi all - does anyone know when the next round of bonus points will post? I had a stay that ended on February 23rd and the stay itself was manually put in, but the bonus nights have yet to be added.

Thanks!

Smile When do Hyatt "Bonus Journey" award nights get applied to accounts?

February 28, 2021 was the end of the "free night" bonuses for the HYATT "Bonus Journey" promotion. When will the nights be applied to Hyatt member accounts? Originally, it was said it would take 2 to 3 weeks but was actually happening much faster? Please advise.
Thanks

Does that also apply when charging the food to my room?

Re-read the "you can still earn when dining and not staying" part again.

So the question is, if you are staying at a Hyatt and laying for food with your Hyatt Visa card (not charging to your room) will you get the bonus points?

That wasn't his question, but as for your question, I would assume the answer is yes?
